His team needed only the final five minutes of the fourth quarter to turn a 10-point lead into a 26-23 overtime loss to the Detroit Lions at Lincoln Financial Field Sunday.

Trailing 23-13, Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford orchestrated two scoring drives over the final five minutes of play, the first capped by a 17-yard touchdown pass to Nate Burleson and the final finished off by a 19-yard field goal by Jason Hanson, sending the game to overtime.

Eagles quarterback Michael Vick took two sacks on the Eagles opening drive in the extra period, pinning his team deep in its own territory before facing a fourth-down situation. Stafford and the Lions needed just five plays and 23 yards to set up the game-winning 45-yard kick by Hanson, dropping the Eagles to 3-3 overall after a 2-0 start.

“Obviously we didn’t get it done,” Reid said. “You have a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter and you have to take care of it and we didn’t do that. I’ll take responsibility. We just weren’t good enough all the way around.

“We have got to get better.”

The Eagles offense started slow Sunday, allowing Detroit to take a 6-0 lead before Philadelphia scored on four of five drives during a stretch from late in the first half to early in the fourth quarter, taking a 16-6 lead.

After Detroit pulled within three at 16-13, Vick found wideout Jeremy Maclin (six catches, 130 yards) for a 70-yard touchdown, putting Philadelphia ahead 23-13 with just 5:18 left on the clock.

It was all Lions from there.

Stafford stayed in the shotgun on the ensuing drive, mixing in a bit of no-huddle before ending the seven-play drive with a 17-yard TD pass to Burleson on a third-and-15 play.

The Eagles quickly went three-and–out, with a third-down pass from Vick to Maclin – similar to the scoring play – being tipped at the line by Lions tackle Ndamukong Suh.

Said Vick, on if the ball had not been tipped: “Jeremy Maclin would still be running.”

The Lions executed the two-minute drill to perfection, getting as close to the Eagles one-yard line before having to settle for a game-tying field goal.

"Pretty much don't know what to say," Vick said. "We put ourselves in a position to win games and we don't finish. It's hard to decipher what mistakes are being made and what's going on. This is the ultimate team game and I can't pinpoint what's going on in the moment."

The Eagles won the toss to start overtime and had decent field position at their own 25 after a 23-yard return by Brandon Boykin, but Vick lost a total of 21 yards on consecutive sacks to start the drive and followed with an incompletion, forcing Philadelphia to punt.

A holding penalty temporarily took the Lions out of field goal range at the Eagles’ 44-yard line, but Stafford immediately found Calvin Johnson for a 17-yard completion. Hanson ended the game three plays later, improving the Lions to 2-3.

"I don't know what the other guys were thinking," Hanson said. "But I'm sure I'm not the only one who realized that we had to have this win, and to go 1-4 would be a huge mountain to climb. It was a big win. Everybody knows that we have a lot of work to do because we barely pulled it out. But a win is a win in the NFL and we surely needed it."

Johnson was held relatively quiet through three quarters, but exploded down the stretch and finished with six catches for 135 yards. Stafford also looked poor in the early going, completing just 22-of-45 passes, although he posted 311 yards through the air.

"Johnson made a big play there at the end," Reid said. "We were in man coverage on one of them, and on the other one, we really had him doubled, but he was able to get free."

Vick threw for 311 yards, completing 28-of-46 passes, but also threw two interceptions and was partially responsible for two fumbles, just one of them lost. Running back LeSean McCoy was ineffective on the ground, carrying 14 times for just 22 yards, but did have seven catches and a receiving touchdown.

Philadelphia has the week off before hosting undefeated Atlanta, Vick’s former team, two Sunday’s from now.
